A pleasant foodie surprise in San Angelo!…read more I had to come into San Angelo for work and going into the trip, I was not too excited about my food options available to me as a vegetarian...but I did find Buttercup online and it seemed close enough to those "hip, city coffee shops", meaning I should be able to get some decent food! Unfortunately, a lot of their hot sandwich options were off the table since they seemed to have a broken toaster, but I was able to order a hummus veggie sandwich that came with seasoned potato chips, a side salad, and a stick of chocolate. I also got a vanilla cake bite (pop without the stick) and everything was about $18 with tip. I didn't feel like trying any of the drinks, but some of the coffee flavors sounded interesting and they have seasonal flavors too. The ambiance is inviting, and definitely feels like a cozy place for the community to come hang. If you ever find yourself in this part of west Texas, definitely keep this spot in your back pocket for close to healthy eats!

Love visiting Buttercup. The vibe in the shop is welcoming and calming. Like any good coffee shop,…read moreit makes you want to stay. The coffee options are plentiful and they do their own take on both custom and traditional coffee drinks. You will find all your caffeine needs here. They also have a good menu. It ranges from custom toasts to toasted bagels and even extensively crafted charcuterie boards. Service is friendly and knowledgeable and they have a drive thru if you are in a hurry. There are a few good coffee options in San Angelo and if you are in Buttercup's part of town, this is your stop.

This…read morewas my 5th time coming to RICE Food and Boba, so I've enjoyed the food and environment; I would officially give the food 7.5/10 and the environment 6/10 (I am willing to overlook the strong grease smell that clings to my clothes while I do dine-in with them). They have around 6 tables available for dine-in, and 1 side table for those waiting, or who have mobile orders (I think?). I usually get their Pad Thai, Fried Dumplings, and iced coffee when I dine-in. Their Pho noodle bowl is average at best--definitely not worth the $16 they charge. Today, I called in an iced coffee and told them I'd be there in about 5 mins. They told me they won't take a drink order over the phone and that they would make it once I arrived (perhaps knowing that the ice would melt and degrade the quality of the drink--I get it). I arrived and there were 2 parties in line in front of me. Altogether, after waiting for the customers before me and putting my order in, it took about 25 minutes from the time I called them to the time the drink was ready for pick-up. One would think a pick-up drink order would be prioritized, but no, they had me wait 20 minutes for them to complete all the lunch meals that were ahead of my call-in/pick-up drink order. Effective and proper business practice would be to prioritize a simple pick-up drink order and not make the customer wait for the time it takes to cook 6 full dishes for dine-in customers. To make things even spicier, I overhear them taking food orders over the phone 15 mins into my wait time. Definitely not coming back to this establishment unless I plan to dine-in, smell spicy, and maybe order a cup of overpriced disappointment... Sorry Rice, your lack of prioritizing of pick-up service broke my heart...

With a wide variety of options, there's no shortage of flavors to suit just about anyone. At 91 degrees in San Angelo, it hit the spot perfectly. The shop itself has a cute, inviting ambience that adds to the experience. That said, the service left a lot to be desired. It felt rushed and impersonal...no warmth, no smiles, just a "get you through the line" kind of interaction. Not quite the friendly small-town vibe you might expect. Unfortunately, that lack of hospitality overshadows the positives, and it's enough to make us think twice about coming back, which is a real shame.

Food - 5/5 Service - 10/5…read moreAmbiance - 5/5 What a lovely coffee shop! I have not seen a coffee shop in all of Texas that has einspanners so I was very excited to see that Lume does! All their coffee drinks have two shots of espresso but you can add an extra shot if you'd like! Their espresso is good and strong. I also ordered the spinach pastry which was amazing. I unfortunately dropped it on the floor because I'm clumsy but Kaitlyn (sp?) and Elizabeth very kindly made me another free of charge after seeing what happened! They were lovely at answering questions, modifying coffee orders, and more. If I'm back in the area, I'll definitely stop by again!

I would rate this a 1 but am giving a 3 in hopes you grow and improve as a small business…read more The espresso simply was not good. I had an iced americano and the coffee tasted harsh, bitter and burnt. It tasted no better than an iced cup of Folgers. Iced strawberry matcha was very sweet so couldn't really tell if the matcha was quality or not. It was honestly too sweet to drink for me. Suppose I should've order half sweet but I forgot. Atmosphere was a little dingy but overall fine and at least there was a lot of seating. Staff was kind when I ordered. I don't live in San Angelo I was driving through and it looked like there were no good options for a quality cup of coffee. This place seemed the most promising based solely on pictures but it was disappointing. Seems like this place is trying to create more of a vibe and a brand and the coffee is an afterthought. I would highly recommend looking into quality espresso and training your staff on how to properly use the machines because the shot I received was either due to awful beans or inability to pull a quality shot. For $13 + tip I was disappointed in the quality of both drinks.
